Biltong – port wine soup with Roquefort, from Africa

Sauté the biltong in butter. Add the flour and stir to form a roux. Pour in the meat stock and bring to a boil. Add the milk and bring to a boil. Add the port wine and let it simmer for 5 minutes. Add fresh cream. Finally, crumble in the Roquefort. Tip: If the soup seems a bit thin at first, let it stand longer; it will thicken further.
